- C
  Catherine BrockAug 14, 2025
  If the cooking zones on your Westinghouse Cooktop are not functioning, there might be several reasons. Ensure that no more than 10 seconds have passed since you switched on the appliance, and try switching it on again. Check if the child safety device or the lock is activated and deactivate them if necessary, referring to the relevant sections in the manual. Also, make sure you are only touching one sensor field at a time. If any objects are lying on the control panel, remove them and try switching the appliance on again. The automatic switch off may have been triggered.

Why is my Westinghouse Cooktop ceramic glass surface pitting?

  Annette YorkAug 27, 2025
  Pitting on the ceramic glass surface of your Westinghouse Cooktop is likely caused by spillovers of liquid with high sugar content. These spills must be removed immediately with a special scraper for glass. Failure to do so can result in permanent damage to the cooktop glass, which is not covered under warranty.

Why isn't the automatic warm up function working on my Westinghouse WHC933BD Cooktop?

  Tiffany RandolphSep 3, 2025
  If the automatic warm up function on your Westinghouse Cooktop isn't activating, it could be due to several reasons. First, check if there's residual heat on the cooking zone; if so, allow it to cool down. Also, the function may not work if the highest heat setting is selected, as it provides the same power. If the heat setting was set using the sensor field, switch off the cooking zone and reset it using the sensor field.
